Galaxy Code Documentation
*************************
Galaxy_ is an open, web-based platform for accessible, reproducible, and
transparent computational biomedical research.
- *Accessible:* Users without programming experience can easily specify parameters and run tools and workflows.
- *Reproducible:* Galaxy captures information so that any user can repeat and understand a complete computational analysis.
- *Transparent:* Users share and publish analyses via the web and create Pages, interactive, web-based documents that describe a complete analysis.
Two copies of the Galaxy code doumentation are published by the Galaxy Project
- Galaxy-Dist_: This describes the code in the `most recent official release`_ of Galaxy.
- Galaxy-Central_: Describes the `current code in the development branch`_ of Galaxy. This is the latest checkin, bleeding edge version of the code. The documentation should never be more than an hour behind the code.
Both copies are hosted at ReadTheDocs_, a publicly supported web site for hosting project documentation.
If you have your own copy of the Galaxy source code, you can also generate your own version of this documentation:
::
$ cd doc
$ make html
The generated documentation will be in ``doc/build/html/`` and can be viewed with a web browser. Note that you will need to install Sphinx and a fair number of module dependencies before this will produce output.
